Steve O Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 The raiders put up some big numbers against KC today, almost 300 yards on the ground. ATT YDS TD LG D. McFadden 21 164 1 50 M. Bush 16 90 1 32 J. Fargas 9 43 0 11 Our D line didn't dominate a banged up Jackonsville line like I would have liked...this has me concerned about next week.
PromoTheRobot Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 The Chefs are an embaressment. That said, we need to improve against the run. MJD ran all over us. PTR
VOR Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 The Chefs are an embaressment. That said, we need to improve against the run. MJD ran all over us. PTR No he didn't. And neither did Taylor.
Fezmid Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Our D line didn't dominate a banged up Jackonsville line like I would have liked...this has me concerned about next week. Umm.... Did you look at how we completely shutdown their running game for the most part? Fred Taylor: 14 rushes, 49 yards, 13 long Maurice Jones-Drew: 7 rushes, 17 yards, 9 long (or 6 rushes for 8 yards if you take out the 9 yarder!) Gerrard had several nice scrambles, but we dominated the OL pretty well - not as much pressure in the passing game as I had hoped or expected, but our run defense was great.

PromoTheRobot Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 No he didn't. And neither did Taylor. In the 3rdQ? PTR
VOR Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 In the 3rdQ? PTR On their first 2 series in the 3rd quarter, yes. Outside of that, no.
Beerball Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 In the 3rdQ? PTR Gerrard was their main gainer today. MJD and Taylor had a few nice runs, but we controlled them pretty well...even though tackling sucked. 21 rushes for 66 yards by the RBs aint too bad. But, gotta play Oakland as a one dimensional team, don't you?
Fezmid Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 In the 3rdQ? PTR MJD had 9 rushes for 17 yards... With a long of 9. That's not domination by any stretch of the imagination PtR.
Max Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 We are tackling pretty bad. we better learn how to wrong up and drive our legs through the runner with proper shoulder and head placement if we are going to shut down mcfadden.
Pete Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 and do not forget JaMarcus Russell completely sucks ass!
Fewell733 Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 McFadden is dangerous if he has a big hole. He's a fumbler though, and not that shifty. I don't see next week's game being too close (knock on wood). Also Al Davis could fire Kiffin at any moment.
NorCal Aaron Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 I watched the Chiefs/Raiders tilt, and both teams are pretty bad. That said, the McFadden kid can turn the corner so the Bills better be mindful of contain. Also, Fargus is a strong determined runner with a good burst, but he left the game with what looked like a non-contact groin injury, so I'm not sure of his status on Sunday.
Dr. Fong Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 17 Yards? Do you realize how FAR 17 yards is? Pace it off sometime. You'd be surprised.

Kelly the Dog Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 The Sum Total of MJD's rushes: Apparently he ran all over us close to the line of scrimmage and very quickly fell down.
Beerball Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Apparently he ran all over us close to the line of scrimmage and very quickly fell down. God, I must be tired, that made me ROLF!
